How to isolate Stripe webhook events between multiple SaaS products?

Question

I have two SaaS tools, both using Stripe for payments. Stripe lets me add 16 webhooks, so I set up one for SaaS 1 and another for SaaS 2—but here’s the problem: when SaaS 2 gets a subscription (or other billing events), SaaS 1’s backend still gets the Stripe webhook callback too.

To isolate webhook events between your two SaaS products on the same Stripe account, you can utilize Stripe's webhook filtering capabilities or implement a middleware solution. Stripe allows you to filter webhooks based on specific criteria such as the object type or metadata associated with the event. By adding unique metadata to the customers or subscriptions of each SaaS product, you can then filter the webhooks at the receiving endpoint to only process events relevant to that specific SaaS.
